About this map

The Ogeechee River carves a winding path along the boundary between Washington County and Jefferson County, anchoring a rural landscape defined by creek valleys and long-standing family roads. The small community of Grange sits at a strategic junction where Ga-171 meets Ga-88, while the settlement of Magnolia is positioned further north. These crossroads serve as the geographic heart of the quadrangle, surrounded by smaller landmarks like Stapletons Crossroads and the crossing at Fenns Bridge.

Family heritage is deeply rooted in the land, visible through the names of thoroughfares like Alonzo Davis Rd and Jasper Davis Rd. Genealogists will find interest in the documented locations of Providence Cem and Magnolia Cem, which mark historical burial sites near the intersection of local routes. The terrain is irrigated by numerous watercourses, including Rocky Comfort Cr and Ivey Br, which historically dictated the placement of early homesteads and transport corridors throughout this part of east-central Georgia.
